- The new inline 4 cylinder for the GLE-Class is excellent! Here is a loop of my normal test drive route while explaining the new features and GLE experience.
Авто/Мото
Loved the way it drives. My favorite feature was probably the MBUX stuff out of this world
Nice job! I enjoyed that drive!
Got mine last week. I absolutely love it. I am also more than pleased with the 4 cylinder.
Glad to hear it!!
Great demo, I will be checking out the 450 GLE w/ AMG night package.
Just bought a GLE 350, it's a beauty.
Great video!!
Awesome video!
Can't wait to see the 2020 GLC AMG pack!
Wow! You know your cars. Awesome review!!
Thank you! It is my job to know!
Woah, brand new seat chime! Cool!
14 minutes of me babbling and you hear the seat chime!
I like that the GLE Fontaine unit is in the dash.
I can’t wait for the 2020 GLS, I’m saving for one for myself!
It's going to be fantastic!
Thanks for thus vid!
The way reviews should be done ✅
Thank you!!!
Thank you for the review. Waiting for the autopilot feature to be mentioned.... very spoiled by Tesla now. Don't even get me started about summon. Nothing compares....
Great review! Very different from the other channels!
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Flawless
I am waiting for my AMG 2021 350 gle 🥰 this September, actually 28/9/2020
“Hey Alexa,”
“Bitch I’m Mercedes.”
Crashes!!!
Hi! Perfect review! Once the new 2020 GLS could you do a detailed review once it comes out later this year?
thanks and Of course!
🔥
i literally just got a 2019 bmw x3 a few months ago but after the cpo warranty is over i kinda wanna consider GLE... is the GLE350 much slower than the GLC300 ( i have throughly test drive the GLC and felt it was quite quick maybe slightly faster than my bmw
Nice to see a real world test. I am curious about the suspension. Living in New York our roads might as well be dirt they are so bad. Was hoping to get the similar suspension in the 2020 GLS just in a small size.
I'd recommend you choose the $1700 Airmatic package. It's worth it!
Hi, do you know if the 450 has power 2nd row (for reclining etc) without getting the 3rd row seats?
Yes! Power second row is an option for both. It is required to get the 3rd Row but optional either way.
I like the camera quality
thank you! I use an LG phone.
You said the old ML350/GLE350 had 268HP but I believe it was 302HP
You're so right! I got that 268 stuck in my head years ago and can't get it out. The dangers of getting old. Thank you for pointing it out politely.
Hello: please do a drive 350 vs 450 drive test!! Thats what consumers are really waiting to hear what the diff is.
Does gle350 have air suspension???
I have never seen in any vehicle with MBUX what you mentioned at 5:31 - where you can split the center screen to show media and navigation at the same time in kind of “panels”. Could you explain how to do that please?
Bumping ☺️
The air vents are an eyesore! 😱😞
225hp is plenty for going back and forth to work. But is it enough to tow? The current GLE350 has power to spare.
I will certainly be recommending the GLE450 to people towing more than a jet ski.
Why no demo of the autonomous features: lane centering and auto lane change?
This particular one did not have those features.
WoW
4 cylinder starting at $55K in USA. What is the market for this sort of 4 cylinder SUV no longer made in Germany (Alabama)?
It will be the volume car for us. We have a 4 cylinder in the C, E and GLC that all sell very well. It is as much torque as the old V6 engines and has a better transmission. Of course, there will be hold-outs and then can spend the extra $4000 for the 6-cylinder.
Wife just bought one, and the power behind the turbo is amazing! Does not feel like a 4 cyl
a squires yeah, 255 hp and 0-60 in 7.2 seconds doesn’t quite classify as “amazing”. It’s quite honestly disgraceful Mercedes has the nerve to put a 4 cylinder in a luxury midsize suv. Even the Honda passport comes standard with a V6 and would blow this thing out of the water.
its this brand new gle
12:21 you said “hey Mercedes” but she didn’t react. Maybe she knows when you actually mean it!
HI MY NAME IS JAJAHOI!!! That’s because she was already in the mbux menue
Does the GLE 350 come with the Burmester sound system standard? There are two sound system. Please let me know. Thanks
Three systems available: Basic, Burmester, Burmester High-End 3D
Thank you so much. You saved me from ordering the wrong GLE! Do you happen to know how to enable hand free lift gate with the kick? MBUSA.com says that it is standard but mine doesn’t seem to sense me doing the kick. Perhaps it is needs to be enabled?
Glad my video was helpful. Does your car have the tow hitch? If so then the kick sensors are set off to either side of it. If not then the sensor is dead center. In and out, no wiggling about. Takes about half a second to move after you do the kick. As far as I know there is no way to enable to disable it.
Thank you!! I will call the dealership to remove the hitch in case it is hindering its ability to work. I love the car , however I feel like the transmission could very jerky around town, the headlights point too downwards at night, the headliner rattles and the front subwoofers make the footrest unbearable to use due to the bass vibration. I am in love with the car, and I hate complaining in general, but I will swallow my pride for an almost $70k car. Thank You for this Video, there is very little information on the GL, specially the 350.
Does the GLE have heated armrests and remote start like the new 2019 X5?
With option code DB0 - the Warmth & Comfort Package - you pick up heated armrests.
@@Benzblogger Heated door panel as well I believe!
How is the frontline visibility? Many SUV's/Crossovers seem to be shrinking this.
I would say it is excellent but I am 5' 8" tall. I think it depends on the person if the car has the right sight lines.
I feel like it gives you a more commanding view of the road. You seat high and it feels a little truckish! I love it. For me it feels like a body on frame sort of SUV rather than the car like crossover.
there's no gle54, it's gle 53
The biggest problem...oh sh*t the biggest concern lol
Load it up with 5 people and there stuff you will definitely want a 450.
Lucky for me I just have one friend....
Hi there, does this engine has electric engine eq boost?
I was driving the GLE350 with the I4 engine. The GLE450 I6 does have the EQ boost.
BenzBlogger thanks a lot.
Dual screens look nice but those prominent vents are too ugly.
Respect your opinion but it goes really well with the screens
how come gle 2020 came out so early.
because we sold all of the 2019s much faster than anticipated!
Its cockpit is better than f35
what is that on the right side of the big screen?
trim to match the vent on the left side.
@@Benzblogger thanks for replying. basically, it's a fake vent. does it look good in person?
It looks like it belongs there. It is the same materials as the vent on the other side so you can't tell the difference.
Fake vent and dust collector
The camera angle is a little too low
The first girl on the world that could drive perfectly
How about gas consumption for 350
Dmitri Naiman it’s a V6 gasoline for the GL models which is a standard engine it’s really great and saves so much gas. The sedan lineup can start from 4 cylinders
The New GLE 350 is a 4 cylinder turbo engine. I have been using it on my 200k mile commute and it gives me 26 highway. Worth mentioning, the technician told me that I could use mid grade fuel. I put premium tho. Very comfortable long drives.
Totally agree with you on the pronunciation: Route is correctly pronounced “root”..... “row-t” is a completely different meaning and sounds crude and uneducated
And yet, that's how the car pronounced it.
2020 GLE??? Time travel????
My wife has a 2017 GLE 43, there's no way I'll get a 4 cylinder. I think Mercedes made a mistake here at least on the GLE, the GLC or GLA sure if that's what you like. The Mercedes V-6 is a very proven engine, I even have my doubts about the inline-6 on the GLE 450. So unless Mercedes offers a proven engine .. I'll have to wait and see.
The new 4 cylinder is actually quite good. It runs very smooth and offers a good economy and the GLE is a german car and a good economy is very important in Germany especially in Europe, because petrol is very expensive here and that is why all the car brands are trying to improve their engines (downsizing). And trust me, an inline-6, especially one from Mercedes is an awesome engine, but a big SUV like the GLE shouldn't get a 4 cylinder, especially if it is called a 350.
@@pomo2617 .. I live in Florida. The GLE is assembled in Tuscaloosa .. so the Germans need to keep their 4-cylinders in their backyard, ship the old V-6 here. I'm not a fan of inline-6's either based upon my experience with Mercedes of past. I rather be charged to gas guzzlers tax and be done with it.
If you watch all the reviews out so far on the inline-6 you'll find that even enthusiasts are excited about this engine. They say it's the best SUV they have ever driven in their lives. Basically, it's not just good - it's great! (To quote Tony the Tiger) ;)
@@opheliawild .. My past inline 6 diesel blew its engine at 120K miles.
Marry me
So Kia copied Mercedes and Hyundai copied Lexus
My 2020 GLE-350 cruise control is a piece of crap, just as bad as the Subaru, except $30K more expensive.
Too many things to play and get distracted.
Try an actual test drive of the car, not the electronics. How’s the ride, how does it handle, how does it handle at 75 mph? How does it accelerate to pass at 70 mph? What a waste of time.
Le riprese sono penose e scadenti. Non è la migliore che abbia visto sinora senza dubbio…👎🏻
Woman driving? No thanks.. (Especially with this affective voice...jeeez...)
@@opheliawild not sexist but more informed than most men I doubt, bring us the numbers of stats to confirm..
Very nice vehicle but horrible scenery 🤮
it is so ugly there's nothing more to say about the interior.
Devin Choi I respect your opinion however most people admire it so much as a huge update from the old interior it’s a stunning and unique look.
used to be a big MB fan but this giant screen has no design or taste. and the fact that mercedes uses pretty much the same dash design on all her cars makes it silly to buy.
what are you paying for, when they don't design anything into a car? a C is smaller S ?!?
the dials are all replaced with ipad screens. so why pay so much $ ? no personality. all dull and dumb down version.
MB classes used to be designed specifically different from each other and you could touch and feel the difference. I have an ipad, i don't need my car to look like an ipad... sorry but the interior is very ugly.
